Traveling from Kenai to McKinley

          We are on the road again this time traveling from the Kenai peninsula to the
          McKinley Princess lodge.  From the lodge it is reported we will be able to see
          Mt. McKinley or as it is also referred to "The Mountain" or "Denali"
		  
          We are told that if we are able to see Denali we will be in the 30% who have 
          seen the mountain.
		   
          Our current road trip takes us through Anchorage, Alaska.  I have visited
          Anchorage on a number of occasions while employed by Public Health Service,
          Indian Health Service.
		   
          Mount McKinley or Denali (Koyukon Athabaskan for "The High One",
          Dghelaayce’e in Ahtna) in Alaska, United States is the highest mountain
          peak in North America and the United States, with a summit elevation of
          20,320 feet (6,194 m) above sea level. It is the centerpiece of Denali
          National Park and Preserve.
		   
          Mount McKinley has two significant summits: the South Summit is the higher
          one, while the North Summit has an elevation of 19,470 feet (5,934 m) and a
          prominence of approximately 1,320 feet (402 m). The North Summit is sometimes
          counted as a separate peak and sometimes not; it is rarely climbed.
		   
          Five large glaciers flow off the slopes of the mountain. The Peters Glacier
          lies on the northwest side of the massif, while the Muldrow Glacier falls from
          its northeast slopes. Just to the east of the Muldrow, and abutting the eastern
          side of the massif, is the Traleika Glacier. The Ruth Glacier lies to the
          southeast of the mountain, and the Kahiltna Glacier leads up to the southwest
          side of the mountain.
